Question
Why am I receiving notifications about rpcbind similar to the following?
On most servers the following services are not needed and should be stopped and disabled from starting unless used:
rpcbindEach service can usually be disabled using:
/bin/systemctl stop [service]
/bin/systemctl disable [service]
Answer
The notifications are generated by the 3rd party software ConfigServer LFD, which is not provided by cPanel. The rpcbind service is installed by default on modern operating systems. The cPanel software does not manage or install rpcbind.
You can whitelist the rpcbind process in this third-party application by adding the following to /etc/csf/csf.pignore:
exe:/usr/sbin/rpcbind
Alternatively, you can add it within WHM with "Home / Plugins / ConfigServer Security & Firewall / lfd - Login Failure Daemon / csf.pignore."
